    She’s part of a group that has taken the House hostage. How tf will they do anything meaningful? Democracy has been suspended until we get voters to actually care, especially in the primaries.

      For people who support Trump and his particularly enthusiastic Congress members the dysfunction is a feature.

      Really not sure censuring mtg is worth the effort. They’re just giving her more fundraising power.

        All this really does is trigger a vote in two days. The sponsor can withdraw the bill at that time or demand a House vote. It’ll give MTG a moment of pause because she has much more to lose, Committee assignments, etc.
